Tho I'nlted States court of appeals today reversed the decision ot thoUnited States district court In the caseof the government against the LexingtonMill and Elevator company of Ix-xlngton,Neb., In which the lower court declaredthat the electrical bleaching processknown at the Alsop process was a violation of the provisions of the national purefood and drugs act.- Tho appellate courtordered the lower Court to retry tho case.'Tho caco originally was heard In Kansas City. Judge Smith McPhcrson chargedth jury that If It was found the bleachingprocess added anything to the flour,whether It was Injurious or not. a verdictIn favor of the government should befound. The appellate court held thatJudge McPherson erred In so chargingthe jury.The government suit against the Lexington Mill and Elevator rompany. wasIn reality a test case In voiding the useof the Alsop process machinery In themills of the country. John 15. Mitchell,president of tho Alsop process company,declared today after the court's decisionwas rendered, that he believed the .decreesettled tho question for all time, and thatthere would bo no other trial of thocase,Inenltoii of linnnrlt.i.When tho attorneys for the milling company aigucxl tho case before tScuppcllatecourt It was admitted that In the bleaching process a nitrate was formed, hut itwas proved that a man would have to eatabout 15,000 loaves of brond before hewould get an orlnary dose of the nitrate,and that even If he did take a dose of it,It would not hurt him. Atorneys for themilling company declared that the Alsopprocess waB so valuable to tho millersof the country that if Its use was pro- 1hlblted the people of the country mighthave to ceaso eating bread a year to givethe wheat and flour an opportunity tobecome ripened or to bleach by tho process. The Alsop process, It was declared, Iscapablo of enabling niillern to grind greenwneat into flour and bleach It at once,By any other process, it wao declared, Itwould bo necessary to wait until tlwwheat became ripe, and after the wheatwas ground It would require weeks for the.riour to Dieacn. By the Alsop process, Itwas declared, ten seconds would bo required, where the natural process required weeks.Pacific DissolutionDiscussion BecomesTriangular AffairNEW YORK, Jan. 23.
